  • Great content

    Great content. But. Subscribed via OTB app. Now I can only listen via the app and cannot listen through Apple Podcasts or Spotify. This is not a subscriber friendly option. €9.99 to listen on one platform. Not user friendly as listeners listen on multiple platforms. Sort it out

    Nothing is contrived. It’s just great unscripted chat about SPORT. I’ve capitalised sport for a reason.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

"Comfortable in the uncomfortable" | Hunter to hunted | Ep.47: Eve McMahon first senior gold! | WOTS
Q: How are you balancing training with university, and what role does intention play in your preparation?
I focus on consistent, rigorous training and use the intention to be the best as my guiding principle. Balancing studies with sport is challenging but supported by my university and scholarship, and the intention-driven approach keeps my preparation focused and resilient.
"Comfortable in the uncomfortable" | Hunter to hunted | Ep.47: Eve McMahon first senior gold! | WOTS
Q: What does it mean that Daisy came after you in the final race, and how did you respond to that tactic?
It was a strategic move that changed the dynamic of the medal race. I stayed calm, defended my lines, and focused on my own race while acknowledging her tactic, which ultimately helped me secure gold by executing a strong final sprint.
ROMAIN GROSJEAN: "I'm not ready to retire" | Safety in F1 | Reaction to new regs | THE F1 POD
Q: What drew you back to single-seaters and IndyCar after a career in F1?
The personal challenge and the opportunity to maximize the package, plus the collaboration with Dale Coyne Racing, made it an appealing path rather than sticking to sports cars.
ROMAIN GROSJEAN: "I'm not ready to retire" | Safety in F1 | Reaction to new regs | THE F1 POD
Q: When you mentioned retirement, is that purely from single seaters, or do you see yourself racing in any form in the next few years?
I don't see retirement coming any time soon; I love racing behind the wheel and want to continue in various formats such as endurance racing and possibly more IndyCar or other series when opportunities arise.
In memory of Moya Brennan | When Eoin visited the Clannad icon in Gweedore
Q: Will Enea get big into it, and how do you see the next generation carrying this legacy?
Enea will definitely be part of the culture here, and the whole family expects to keep the tradition alive, with the pub serving as a communal space for fans and family to celebrate the music and sports they love.
